A Family That Cooks Together Stays Together!

Our society tends to undermine the family, so we as Catholics need to encourage fellowship and strengthening of family bonds. What better place than around the dinner table?

1. "Cooking with the Saints" by Ernst Schuegraf is a fun book for whole family to learn about the Saints; teach your kids and make tasty food. I found the book in print on the webpages of Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Borders.

2. "Grace Before Meals" (http://www.gracebeforemeals.com) is a website by Father Leo who is dedicated to strengthening families through food and fellowship. Father Leo has videos of his cooking show, recipes, tips for conversation around the table, and much more! Cool!

An online video cooking show by a priest! What fun! See: http://www.gracebeforemeals.com/videos.php

3. "Healthy Catholic" is a Catholic video podcast to help us have a healthier lifestyle: http://sqpn.com/category/video/healthy-catholic/
